Answer:

Option C: x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given an equation in x and asked to solve for x

The given equation is

[tex]\frac{x+3}{5} =2[/tex]

To solve for x, we have to have only x on the left side.

So multiply the equation both sides by 5 first

We get x+3 =2(5) =10

Subtract 3 to get

x =10-3 =7

Hence 7 is the answer.

We can verify the answer by substituting for x in the given equation.

Substitute x=7 we get (7+3)/5 = 2

Thus answer is right.
